Sharpie must be making a killing off wannabe crafters -- everything on Pinterest lately is markers on mugs or markers on something else. And I have to say that I sort of love the idea of making your own mugs. I mean, I could never sell them; my unsteady left hand would never allow it.

This week, I popped over to the Dollar Tree and grabbed some mugs because I decided that I wanted to be like the rest of my craft buddies. I already had the Sharpies because I do a bit of drawing. When I got home, I made a modern orange-dotted design and a mug that had a quippy phrase.

I put both mugs in the oven while it was COLD. I set it to 300 F for 35 minutes. When the time was up, I left them in there to cool. They are awesome and now I have two more reasons to drink decaf coffee.

Want to be a regular contributor? Look at the channels I have and if you are interested, send me your writing resume, and what you would write about if you were brought on. This is not a paid opportunity at the moment, but will be in the future.

I'm looking for killer guest posts too. Do you have one? I don't require that you have the entire post completed before contacting me...that seems silly. Shoot me an email and we will throw some topics around and get to know each other better.

Advertisers

Contact me here. I will be honest though; I am not one of the blog folks who believes in littering her website with countless videos and unattractive, over-the-top ads. If you want seamless integration and actual conversions, let's talk. If you prefer a more "Goodie Store Array", I'm not your gal.
